A great artist ought to always have had so good a son.usedbuyer 2.0https://www.blogger.com/profile/08909335300273240931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8816955256931900850.post-36384436974132385702009-06-27T16:47:41.012-07:002009-06-27T16:47:41.012-07:00Thanks for the good write up.

A new artist is almost always hard to first grasp. The lines are unfamiliar to us, may appear awkward or unbalanced somehow. And the obvious - until then not seen - may take a moment to properly focus in our mind's eye. But once focused, what a joy the revelation may be! How obvious! How exact and true!<br /><br />As you can see, I am a fan of my father's work. And, as Ernest Hemingway once claimed, merely being his "pal," I may actually be "prejudiced." And surely the prejudices of a son far outweigh those of a pal.<br /><br />My father often adopted to his theme, and in his Gulliver he caught, I think, the proper spirit of Swift's satire. Bringing his own art to the other's without detracting or blurring his intent.<br /><br />Thanks again,<br /><br />Paul Quintanilla<br /><br />For more go to: www.lqart.orgQuintyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04353505559085634434noreply@blogger.com
